National Sandwich Day
The sandwich is said to be named after John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, following the claim that he was the inventor. He was born on November 3, 1718, which is why today was named National Sandwich Day. No matter who invented it, we celebrate every kind of sandwich!
There are so many sandwich options! Po boy, cheesesteak, sloppy joes, BBQ, Monte Cristo, BLT, grilled cheese, lobster roll… the list goes on & on. Sandwiches are popular around the world.
Sandwiches Around the World
In Japan, a popular choice is Croquette Sando. Croquettes are panko-crusted deep fried potato balls come with a variety of fillings and then turned into a sandwich. Vegemite sandwiches and prawn rolls are popular in Australia with a Thousand Island style dressing. In Israel they make falafel sandwiches with pita bread with crisp slices of fried eggplant, crunchy pickles, a thick swipe of hummus, a drizzle of tahini, a cucumber and tomato salad, hard-boiled eggs, and some amba, a flavorful pickled mango sauce. In England they love cucumber sandwiches with afternoon tea. Paninis in Italy are amazing. The list goes on and on. What’s your favorite sandwich?

BBQ Sauce

Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan over medium. Bring to a boil, stirring until ingredients are completely incorporated; reduce heat to low and simmer gently until sauce has thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. If not using right away, cover and refrigerate for up to two weeks.
Pulled Pork
-
Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C). Spread out onions and garlic in an even layer in a roasting pan; pour in chicken stock. Combine Cajun seasoning and brown sugar in a small bowl. Pat pork shoulder dry with paper towels, then rub all over with spice mixture. Set pork on top of onions and garlic and cover roasting pan with foil; transfer to oven and cook until pork is fork tender, 6 to 8 hours. Transfer pork to a cutting board to cool; strain cooking liquid through a fine-mesh sieve and reserve. If pork has a bone, remove and discard it. With two forks, shred meat into bite-size pieces, discarding any large pieces of fat; return shredded meat to roasting pan. Add 2 C BBQ Sauce and a bit of reserved cooking liquid if too dry.
Coleslaw
-
Combine red and green cabbage, carrot, and red onion in a large bowl. Whisk mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and salt and pepper together in a medium bowl, then add to cabbage mixture; mix well to combine. Taste for seasoning; adjust with more salt, pepper or sugar as needed.
